Project proposal: Open HA Cluster utilities
Posted:
Apr 8, 2008 12:54 PM
|

Hi,
I would like to propose the following OpenSolaris project and ask for a vote from the core contributors of the HA Clusters community group for endorsement.
The voting time expires after a week from today. At least three +1 votes and no -1 vote are required.
Many thanks for your consideration in advance!
#####
Project Synopsis: "Open HA Cluster Utilities" - short: "ha-utilities"
Project Purpose: The purpose of this project is to provide an umbrella for all kinds of utilities around Open HA Cluster. It will be a collection of things that make development, administration, maintenance, management etc. easier.
The project will start with a shell script, which extracts the cluster resource group and resource dependencies and affinities, and transforms the information into the "dot" language understood by the dot command within the open source graphviz tool. This will be a way to visualize the various dependencies/affinities as a colored directed graph.
Sponsoring Community Groups: HA Clusters
Initial Project Team: Thorsten Frueauf (preferred point of contact) Prasad Dharmavaram Neil Garthwaite
Project Relation: none
Project Needs: Standard project page with code repository.

Hi Thorsten, Sounds like a useful proposal. I would like to hear some more details, if they have been hashed out yet. From what it appears, we seem to be talking about this being a development center and repository for any/all non-standard tools that can be used to help cluster administration. And they won't be be part of the OHAC source tree, to be shipped with Cluster express. Please let me know if I am mistaken. If not, then what would be the eligibility criteria for development under this umbrella, rather than say going to main source tree. May be it can be taken up case-by-case, but if you thought more on this, then please let us know.
thanks Suraj

Hi Suraj et al,
you got this absolutely right. I don't have an exact criteria and would propose to handle it on a case by case basis.
Maybe one criteria could be that the tool is small (maybe even just one file/script) and is customizable - so while it fulfills a purpose of general interest, there might be a need to customize it for specific of a specific user or environment.
Like the first example I gave and plan to put under this umbrella - maybe someone wants different colors for the arrows in the graph or additional informations added to the graph, etc - then the user would customize the script for her needs.
Another criteria is that we won't raise the quality bar on those utilities with the requirement to be "production ready" or "throughly tested" - they may just be useful with specific restrictions accepted and not (yet) contain all possible bells and whistles.
Of course this means all those utilities go with the usual disclaimer - use at own risk, etc.

Sorry for the self-reply,
but just so that everyone can get a better understanding of what the purpose of the script is, which I want to put under this umbrella, I wrote a blog with some screenshots:

Hi Thorsten,
I think it's a good idea to encourage the community to deliver "stuff". If I remember correctly that's how Patrik's "dump cluster config tool" started. B.t.w the graphs look very good.
+1
Regards Neil

Thorsten,
I like this idea.
+1 vote from me.
May be you can either move the Advanced Agent builder under this category or create a link from this tools/utilities page.
Thanks, --Prasad

Thorsten,
I think this project is a good idea, but I have a couple questions to follow-on to Suraj's questions. In your response to Suraj below you imply that tools developed as part of this project would not be destined for the official source repository, from which Cluster Express is built. I'm not sure I would want to preclude that possibility. Why couldn't tools developed as part of this project go into the official source repository if the developer wants to do the work to make them production-quality?
Second, would this project be an appropriate place to host the GDS template that's currently not attached to any project?
Thanks, Nick

Hi Nick et al,
sure, utilities developed and collected under this projects umbrella does not imply that it must be included within the official source repository, but it is also not excluded per se to let that happen.
The point I wanted to make is that in order to be part of this project, we allow a lower barrier of providing docs/testing/QA etc. Of course if a specific tool turns out to be popular, useful, etc, than we can always look into taking the next step and making it ready for official integration. It's just not the primary focus.
The goal is really to collect useful utilities that solve some kind of generic problem like to be leveraged by others.
The GDS template could be part of this project, although I would like to keep the existing information at the current place since I already refer to it in some places :)
But if there is a reason to move it under this umbrella, we always can.

Thorsten,
That all sounds fine. So +1 from me for this proposal.

Hi everyone,
thanks for the feedback, I formally conclude that the voting time expired and this project is endorsed by the HA Clusters Community Group with four +1 and no -1 vote.
Nick, as the facilitator for the HA Clusters community group, can you request the project page creation by sending this to project-setup?
